The issue when you have attended one or more WWDCs is that some
sessions are just repeating what had been said the previous year.
If an interested party may be permitted a comment (and a plug), I
would like to say that one important function of WWDC is to
disseminate information about new APIs, for which formal documentation
may be somewhat scant. This year there is much that is new, e.g.
sessions 404 et seq.
Some of what Doug was referring to in the 400's that is obviously new
this year
404 - Internet Technologies: Safari Overview
407 - Internet Technologies: Understanding Safari Technology and Web
Standards
420 - Internet Technologies: Advanced Foundation URL APIs
424 - Internet Technologies: Advanced WebKit APIs
In my own session, 421, I can say that although the title and
description sound rather like last year's, the talk will be almost
entirely new--both because I will be discussing new APIs, and because
I will be covering different aspects of the Cocoa text system.
It'd be no fun to give the same talk multiple years anyways.
If there is some new Apple technology that you would like to learn
about, or even one that is simply new to you, then WWDC is an
opportunity to hear it explicated by its developers. Different people
have different styles of learning, however, and it is always open to
you to use written materials, the WWDC DVDs, mailing lists, etc.
instead.
If you can't attend and if you feel an area isn't covered well enough
by docs, file bugs, that's the best way to communicate that.
